Facts

  • Tomatoes can help improve your health. Diets containing tomatoes have been shown to improve heart health. Tomatoes contain vitamin C, which can improve the immune system’s ability to fight disease. Tomatoes also contain lycopene, which has been shown to fight cancer. Lycopene is found in higher concentrations in cooked tomatoes. Studies show the lycopene in tomatoes may help maintain healthy bones.
  • The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the following nutrient content descriptors for tomatoes: low-fat, saturated fat-free, sodium-free (must state that tomatoes contain less than 5 mg sodium per 85 g tomato), cholesterol-free, low in calories, a good source of vitamin A and high in vitamin C.

Dynamic Displays

  • Offer variety in your tomato display. Include beefsteak, roma, grape, cherry and on-the-vine options for consumers.
  • Don’t refrigerate tomatoes and make sure consumers know tomatoes are better when stored at room temperature.
  • Avoid stacking tomatoes to keep the bottom layer from getting crushed.
  • If you stock stem-on tomatoes, be sure they all face the same way to avoid puncturing them with the stems. Leaving the stems on retains the farm-fresh smell of tomatoes.
  • Give tomatoes plenty of room and keep the display well-stocked. Consumers will be looking for tomatoes, so make them easy to find.
  • Place tomatoes next to avocados as the color contrast creates an eye-catching display.

Food Service

  • Peeling tomatoes can be difficult. Make it easier by boiling them for 30 seconds. Let them cool, then peel.
  • To easily remove the seeds from a tomato, cut it in half crosswise, then gently squeeze the tomato in the palm of your hand.
  • Offer tomatoes in salads and on salad bars.
  • Chopped tomatoes are a tasty addition to omelets.
  • Use tomatoes as a base for salsa and marinara sauce.
  • Slice tomatoes and use them to top sandwiches and burgers.
